Well, none of these are normal avcs that you would see if selinux was
denying access to something.

A classical avc that makes trouble looks like this:

Sep  2 05:03:13 hostname kernel: audit(1188705793.190:416): avc:  denied
 { search } for  pid=12965 comm="wpa_supplicant" name="netdev:wlan0"
dev=debugfs ino=2841020 scontext=user_u:system_r:NetworkManager_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:debugfs_t:s0 tclass=dir

The avcs are pretty verbose about who what where and when.

Hum seems to be some meta information about loading policies, not in
itself an error, although I dunno what "Can't send to audit system" means.

Seems to be setroubleshoot crashing, again not directly itself an error
caused by selinux.

Not much the wiser except that there don't appear to be any actual
selinux avcs in there and something is unhappy somehwere.
